NTL NZ Gov/Oceana, page-10

I agree. It wouldn't be a terrible outcome for both NTL and the country. Yes we have to suffer 3 years (but could be less) of a left government, but half of winnies voters will feel betrayed by this unholy alliance and same sense of betrayal will be felt for a good number of green voters. Ideally weakening both parties so hopefully we will not be in this position again for a long time. But then again the people in this country do have short memories and never cease to bewilder me!
